Converting Lofts and Attics Heswall
Loft conversions transform wasted roof space into proper living areas like bedrooms, home offices or bathrooms, with the approach and construction varying depending on your roof type.
This is genuinely one of the most popular jobs we’re asked about, and we’d love to give you a hand with yours. We take care of everything from the early prep work right through to scaffolding, timber carpentry, any roof alterations needed, and the full interior fit out covering floors, plasterboard, plumbing and electrics.
The main types of conversions include:
- Dormer – a boxed structure that projects out from the roof slope, creating full height headroom and space for windows
- Hip-to-Gable – extending a sloped hip out to form a vertical gable wall, which adds loads of volume and works brilliantly on semi-detached and end terrace properties
- Mansard – rebuilding one or both roof slopes to an almost vertical angle with a flat section on top, giving you maximum space though it often needs planning permission
- Velux / rooflight – working with your existing roofline and installing windows into the slope where there’s already decent headroom
- L-shaped – pairing a main rear dormer with a second dormer over the back extension outrigger, which suits period terraced houses perfectly
Whatever type you go for, the work includes structural changes to the roof, installing new floor joists, fitting a staircase, bringing insulation up to current building regs, and completing the full interior.
